DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

Preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in moredetail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

An understanding of the present invention may be best gained byreference to FIGS. 1-7. FIGS. 1-7 illustrate a ring of the firstembodiment of the present invention A ring 1 as the finger ring iscomprised of a ring body 2 formed in the shape of a ring, capable ofrotating, which can be worn on one of a person's fingers, which is madeof precious metal material, metallic material, synthetic resin material,wood, cloth, paper, ceramics, glass or the like; colored parts 4, 5 withthe different color formed at the corresponding parts of the ring body2, the corresponding parts locating at the part except for parts 3, 3with initial letters of one's name or the parts 3, 3 which put ringbody's size.

In addition, in this embodiment of the present invention, the ring body2 is made of silver as precious metal material.

As for the colored parts 4, 5, it is processed by plating, paint andplating with antique style. In this embodiment, the plating with antiquestyle is performed.

In the above referred ring 1, when the ring 1 is be worn on one of aperson's fingers, the user can use the ring 1 with the colored part 4which is located in the surface thereof as shown in FIG. 4; the user usethe ring 1 with the colored part 5 which is located in the surfacethereof as shown in FIG. 5; and the user use the ring 1 with the part 3which is located in the surface of the center part of the ring body 2thereof as shown in FIG. 6.

Moreover, as shown in FIG. 7, when two rings 1, 1 are be worn on one ofa person's fingers, the user can get a great deal of changes.

Other embodiments of the present invention will now be described withreference to FIGS. 8-24. In FIGS. 8-24, the same components as in thefirst embodiment described above with reference to FIGS. 8-24 aredesignated by the same reference numerals and therefore will not befurther explained in great detail.

A second embodiment of the present invention is shown in FIGS. 8-11. Itis distinguished from the first embodiment in that patterns 6, 7 withdifferent pattern are formed to the ring body 2. Accordingly, a ring 1Aaccording to the second embodiment will provide similar advantages tothat according to the first embodiment. In addition, as shown in FIG.11, two rings 1, 1A are be worn on one of a person's fingers at aparallel arrangement, the user can get a great deal of changes.

A third embodiment of the present invention is shown in FIGS. 12-16. Itis distinguished from the first embodiment in that a ring body 2A isused and comprised of a semicircle arc part 8 and an outline shape part9 formed in the shape of a trapezoid, capable of rotating, thesemicircle arc part 8 and the outline shape part 9 having anasymmetrical shape. Accordingly, a ring 1B according to the thirdembodiment will provide similar advantages to that according to thefirst embodiment. In addition, as shown in FIG. 11, two rings 1, 1B arebe worn on one of a person's fingers at a parallel arrangement, the usercan get a great deal of changes.

Moreover, as shown in FIG. 16, two rings 1, 1A and 1B are be worn on oneof a person's fingers at a parallel arrangement, the user can get agreat deal of changes.

A fourth embodiment of the present invention is shown in FIGS. 17-20. Itis distinguished from the first, second and third embodiments in thatmagnets 10, 10, 10, 10 are attached fixedly to both side of the ringbodies 2, 2, 2A at approximately 90 degrees intervals. In thisembodiment, rings 1C, 1D and 1E can be attached fixedly and certainly inplace because the magnets 10, 10, 10, 10 attach each other.

A fifth embodiment of the present invention is shown in FIGS. 21-14. Itis distinguished from the fourth embodiment in that ring bodies 2B, 2Band 2C are formed in the shape of a bracelet. Accordingly, rings 1F, 1Gand 1H according to the fifth embodiment will provide similar advantagesto that according to the fourth embodiment.

In addition, in this embodiment, it is explained about the bracelet.Moreover, the rings 1F, 1G and 1H may be used as anklets attached to aleg.

In each embodiment of the present invention, the parts 3, 3 are formedat the ring body. Moreover, the part 3 with initial letters of one'sname and the part 3 which puts ring body's size may be formedselectively, and they may not be formed.

Furthermore, the rings may be attached fixedly and selectively to thesupport member in place, and the rings may be attached rotatably, freelyand selectively to the support member. Therefore, the rings may be usedas necklaces, broaches and earrings.

As set forth above, the advantages of the invention are as follows:

(1) Since the ring includes a ring body, capable of rotating, which canbe worn on one of a person's fingers; and a decoration part includingcolor, pattern and shape selectively, forming at least two parts at thering body so as to change one of color, pattern and shape by rotatingthe ring body, the ring can be used which is placed where the color,pattern or shape part rotates to visible position.

Therefore, the user can use as the attractive ring according to mood.

For this reason, it is not necessary to prepare two or more rings, andit can be used economically.

(2) As discussed above, since the ring can change the color, pattern orshape by rotating, the ring can be used as a multi-ring.

Therefore, it can be used over a long period of time without losing theuser's interest.

(3) Also claim 2 has the same effect as the above (1) and (2), and thevariations of color, pattern and shape increases and the user can usehappily.

(4) Also claim 2 has the same effect as the above (1) to (3), and it iseasy to attached the plurality of the ring bodies certainly in placeeach other, and it is prevented to not scoot down when in use.

1. A ring comprising: a ring body, capable of rotating, which can be worn on one of a person's fingers; and a decoration part including color, pattern and shape selectively, forming at least two parts at the ring body so as to change one of color, pattern and shape by rotating the ring body.
 2. A ring comprising: at least two ring bodies, capable of rotating, which can be worn on one of a person's fingers; and a decoration part including color, pattern and shape selectively, forming at least two parts at the ring bodies body so as to change one of color, pattern and shape by rotating the ring bodies.
 3. A ring according to claim 2 wherein at least the two ring bodies are attached magnets fixedly to the ring body at 90 and 180 degrees intervals.
